I saw him in Happy-Go-Lucky and then about two weeks later in The World's End... From complete psycho to loveable weakling.

I would never have thought it was the same guy, that's how good he is. The World's End was his first comedy too.

She was interesting. A little annoying, trying to pump positive vibes out to everyone. Obviously putting up a bit of a front, but for good reasons.

i haven't seen happy go lucky in a few years but i used to consider it a fav. i guess i forgot about it until now. ive been waiting for criterion to pick it up since it got a really shitty blu ray release back in 2008

her character is an unpredictable goof. she's got no guts but will follow some dumb galoot into a weird abandoned homeless area? she's so chipper and wants to everyone to like her that i almost hate her for it

and the scene at the end when marsans character blows up on her, oof so good

From start to finish, jesus...was this movie funny. Maybe it worked better because i didn't know anything about it before watching, just watching based on the title and it having a decent rating. I definitely plan to watch it again. I'm gonna miss Johnny Knoxville when he dies.
